SUMMARY: President Nicolás Maduro has ordered Venezuela's armed forces to conduct defensive exercises in the Eastern Caribbean after the United Kingdom sent a warship toward Guyana's territorial waters. The ship's arrival to Guyana's shores was described as a threat by Maduro, who argued that the deployment violates a recent agreement between the South American nations. Venezuela and Guyana are currently involved in a border dispute over the region with vast oil deposits.

SUMMARY: The US FDA announced it will ban brominated vegetable oil (BVO) in food products starting August 2, with companies given one year to comply. BVO, used in many sodas to stabilize citrus flavoring, has been linked to risks like nervous system damage and organ damage. The decision follows years of scientific evidence and consumer advocacy, including a significant 2012 Change.org petition. Many manufacturers had already started to eliminate BVO. California has also banned BVO along with other harmful substances. Until the ban takes effect, consumers are advised to monitor their intake and check product ingredients for BVO.
